Title: Bill Clinton to Arab Americans: U.S. no longer dominated by Christians and Jews

WASHINGTON - Former President Bill Clinton has told an Arab-American audience of 1,000 people that the U.S. is no longer just a black-white country, nor a country that is dominated by Christians and a powerful Jewish minority

In a speech to the group on Saturday, Clinton said that given the growing numbers of Muslims, Hindus and other religious groups here, Americans should be mindful of the nation's changing demographics, which led to the election of Barack Obama as president.

Clinton said by 2050 the U.S. will no longer have a majority of people with European heritage and that in an interdependent world "this is a very positive thing."

Speaking in a hotel ballroom to the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee during its annual convention, Clinton also praised Obama's speech in Cairo, Egypt, that was focused on the Arab world.

Clinton told the audience that it's important that they push government leaders for a resolution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. He cited an experience in 1993 when he failed to persuade many Jewish-American and Arab-American business people to invest in the Palestinian areas because violence and bombings had deterred them.

"It just took one more bus bomb or one more rocket or one more incident and then people got scared of losing their money," he said.

As the U.S. continues to push for peace in the area, "I think it's really important to give the Palestinian people something to look forward to," Clinton said to loud applause.

Clinton, who wasn't paid for his speech, spoke in a wide-ranging 35-minute address that focused on people's identity in an interdependent world. He said the U.S. can't rely on its military might in global relations. "It has to begin by people accepting the fact that they can be proud of who they are without despising who someone else is," he said.

All this sounds good in theory. Meanwhile the MIC goes on spending $1.1 trillion per year, which appears very much like a "rely on military might" strategy to me. After all, it's half of all military spending done worldwide.

It's made us into a Third World country, so now perhaps the military might will be turned inward somewhat to keep the Third World Americans at bay.

Clinton's just pandering to sand niggers, to get their money.

Do you know how to tell if a politician is lying? Every time they say anything.

global warming changed to climate change

constitutional republic changed to democracy

affirmative action changed to racial norming

excessive taxation changed to "patriotism"

********

And the politicians wonder why countless millions of us are disenfranchised.

It's amazing to see the word games they play and it's not just politicians. But when it comes to politicians, I pay attention to what they name their bills. They are masters at masking their true aims by naming bills something innocuous and patriotic when it is not so innocent and patriotic.

No one has teachers anymore. They have education providers.

Doctors? Not anymore. We have health care providers.

Abortionists? Abortion providers.

I guess they think we're too stupid to see thru this.

They do, and it explains the anger many have toward government. Word games used to alter the basic tenants of our nation tends to piss me off.
